Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup

When the weather outside is frightful, I want my favorite comfort foods. When I was a kid, one of the most common foods we had to warm us up was tomato soup. It's still one of my favorites to this day and I was excited to put a bit of a spin on it with this recipe for Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup.

The roasted red peppers give a sweetness to the soup and add a punch of flavor. This recipe will soon become one of your favorites too!

What to make Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup in

I love making soups in my dutch oven. It holds a large volume of soup and its thick walls limit hot spots and scorching on the bottom to give an even heat throughout. If you don't have a dutch oven, choose a large pot that is made out of a thicker material for even heating.

If you are looking to invest in a dutch oven (which I fully support you doing!) my favorite brands are Le Creuset, Lodge and Staub. Don't be scared by the big price tag, a good dutch oven will last more than a lifetime.

What to serve with tomato soup

• Grilled Cheese
• Grilled Bread
• Half Sandwich
• Oyster Crackers
• Toast
• Toasted

My personal favorite is grilled cheese with tomato soup. There's something about the gooey cheese being dipped into the tomato soup that is just too good. For this recipe I toasted some buttered baguette slices in a cast iron.

What are Roasted Red Peppers

Roasted red peppers are a form of red bell pepper. The peppers are charred, peeled and then stored in olive oil. They are commonly served on sandwiches, with hummus, or made into sauces. This article from Love and Lemons has great information and a recipe to make roasted red peppers.

This recipe for Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup was inspired by a Trader Joe's version of this soup. It has become a favorite of mine over the years so much so that I had to make my own rendition.
